Are there any plans to support Realm Mobile Platform in React Native (RN)?

I'm aware that we can use the mobile platform using native modules in RN, but would like to know whether Realms has plans to implement RN support.

Hi Realm team,
First, I would like to thank you for such a great product and for making us our life easier.

I have installed the ROS in my ubuntu 16.04, and download the Android Demo App in my computer. The installation was completed without errors and I am able to enter in the Dashboard. Also, I am able to run the app, but I am not able to register a new user in the example. The demo throws the following error:

Failed authenticating user.

In the BuildConfig class, the OBJECT_SERVER_IP = "myComputer". This is my /etc/hosts:

127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.1.1 myComputer

I tried changing directly the URL in the RealmTasksApplication class, and this eliminated the error, but the app kept waiting.

Thanks in advance and sorry if it is a silly question.

I have ROS installed on a remote CentOS machine. I am accessing it using an iOS application I am developing.

I have created a realm in the common area (/realmName) with the server admin and the __admin realm shows nil for the owner of that realm.

I created a second user that is not a server admin and created a realm for that user (/~/realmName).

When I log in as the second user, the notification block is called in my iOS application only once. Any changes made during this time are not reflected in the Realm Browser pointed at the user's realm and no changes made to the common realm are reflected in the iOS app. If I close and reopen the iOS app, all pending changes are synced in both directions and everything is up to date, but again no new changes are reflected.

If I make the second user a server admin and then start the app everything works as expected. I can even close the app and revoke admin on the second user and it all still works.

Also, user's authenticating with google have the same problem, and I am not able to make those users admin so the problem persists on all app launches.

I have a MacOS ROS installed on my home network as well and the above scenario does not occur. On the MacOS server all the data is synced immediately just as expected.

Let me know if there are any logs or anything else I can provide that can help. I am unsure if this issue is caused by a configuration problem on my end or if it is an issue with ROS itself.

As a feature request, I would like to suggest an option to easily deploy the Realm Object Server to Heroku. I am aware of the AMI image for Amazon services but a Heroku option would be another easy option for deployment. Are there any plans to support Heroku deployment?

Originally opened as issue against Core (realm/realm-core#2299), but Core is merely the messenger, indicating that an attempt is being made to access a version which is no longer present in the realm file.

This can frequently (though not always) be reproduced by running these steps:

$ git clone https://github.com/realm/realm-cocoa.git
$ cd realm-cocoa
$ git checkout v2.0.4
$ git submodule update --init --recursive
$ ./build.sh verify-osx-object-server

How would I manage to start an iOS application using the new mobile platform when the device is e.g. in Airplane Mode and no auth call to to the server is possible? Shouldn't there be a way to use the locally cached version?
This is not about losing connectivity after having been authenticated when I can grab the user object and keep working, this is purely about starting the app in offline mode.

Also see this post on SO: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/39942208/synchronized-realm-airplane-mode

So I'm thinking about using this as a means to sync a user's realmdb from one iOS device to another.

is that an easy idea to implement, or is this ROS idea really more for cross-user-base syncing?

I guess what I'm trying to ask - I can see where ROS would be quite handy for an "uber-like cab tracking" app, where all users get to see all cabs and RT updates are central to the app as a bunch of users all see the real time state of the data model.

what about for app where I'm looking to (merely) cross-devices sync a user's personal realmdb?

Is it possible to authenticate using .usernamePassword in such a way that if the user account does exist, it uses it, and if it does not, it creates it?

I'm looking at a situation where I want the app to automatically register if need be.

Hello.
I'm very impressed on **Realm Mobile Platform** and this is amazing.
But I have one question about it.
Realm mobile platform synchronize local object to realm object server.
I think realm object is always stored in local and when mobile is online, this object is sync to server.
So, mobile has same realm objects as amount of data that object server has, I think.
Am I right or not.
And can I use this mobile platform as mobile backend?
Please explain about it.
Thanks.

Apologies if I missed it, but what is the best way to remove Realms from the ROS? I've tried rm'ing the .realm, .lock, and .management items from /var/realm/sync-services/user_data. It seems to kill them, but they still show up in my list when using the Realm Browser.

I'm using latest ROS on Ubuntu 16.04.

I have a ROS running on RHEL in Amazon, and for some reason the Realm Browser has stopped showing any new realms in its list. I can see them on the server when doing an 'ls' on the user_data folder, and there are a lot more of them there than in my Browser list. Also, the new realms are no longer showing up as a RealmFile in __admin.

I can connect directly to it from the Open Sync URL... menu option. But the other way is much nicer since I don't have to continually log in.

Any ideas? Is there a local cache that the Realm Browser uses that I could wipe?

Currently the document says:

Log path (set in configuration.yml); defaults to /var/realm-sync.log

https://realm.io/jp/docs/realm-object-server/#logging

On Ubuntu the path was actually /var/log/realm-sync.log.

I suggest enabling installation of ROS on Fedora - at least, to aid adoption.
Please, my problem is the inability to install Realm Object Server on Fedora - I know Fedora was not listed as a compatible OS; but I thought that what is good for RHEL should be good for Fedora 24.

Hi,
Not sure if this is the place to post this, but I've installed the realm mobile platform on a digital ocean droplet, and it doesn't seem to run. I've followed the steps in https://realm.io/docs/realm-mobile-platform/install-realm-object-server/.

When I try to setup the realm dashboard (i.e. access via web) it doesn't work. I think there's no service running.

I tried to install an apache server it seemed to work fine (web access).
Seemingly after running systemctl start realm-object-server there's no output.

Any idea?

Is there a way to add more info to the SyncUser object? Right now the only identifying property on it is "identity". Maybe a subclass to add more properties (like first, last name, etc...)?

It would also be nice to be able to add these custom fields through the ROS admin page when creating a new user.

Let's say a user signs up using their email address and password. Later they want to do something in the app that requires Facebook, so they connect to Facebook inside the app. I want to add the Facebook credential to the existing SyncUser so that when the user logs in on another device they can simply login with Facebook and get all of their data.

At the moment it seems like a SyncUser == credentials, instead of SyncUser has many credentials. I've seen hints at a permissions API coming soon that would let me build a poor man's version of this on my own (granting access for the new credentials to see my current credentials' data), but since authentication is handled by the server, this really seems like something the platform would provide better than a hacked solution.

Let me know if I've missed something in the docs or API that lets me do this already. Thanks!

I had a smooth experience installing the ROS on a new Digital Ocean Droplet running Ubuntu 16.04. But I'm unsure how to configure the server so I can view the ROS dashboard on the web.

Does someone have a functioning configuration.yml file they could share for an Ubuntu installation?

Hi! I want to migrate on realm DB and platform, but now my app use backend on Parse.com. How can I migrate on realm-server?

Hi,

I follow ubuntu instruction to install on my debian, I get this error :
E: Unable to locate package realm-object-server-de

Do you just not support debian at all ?

config :
debian 8.5
x86_64 GNU/Linux

thanks 😊

so is there anyway to register a new admin user other than http://127.0.0.1:27080 ??
what do I do if it's headless server on digital ocean?

so I had to create an ssh tunnel
ssh -L 9000:127.0.0.1:27080 [email protected]

and in the server's sshd_config add

AllowTCPForwarding yes

and then locally open localhost:9000 in a real browser

lynx and w3m did not work(!) in a terminal over ssh

Greetings!

I'm developing Bluetooth networking library for iOS+Android called Underdark and would like to integrate it with Realm Mobile platform, so client devices will be able to sync not only with server, but with each other too.

What is the best or easiest way to do that?

That probably shouldn't be the case. Anybody that knew 9080 or 9443 was Realm, and had valid creds, could enumerate the ROS pretty easily at that point.

I was able to fix this by manually removing the nil - __admin - mayRead permission.

Hi there,

As far as i can understand mobile platform sync the local database with remote server whenever it can. This is great for apps that need to be functional even when there is no internet connection. but right now i'm working on a project that everything has to be live and when user has no connection i want to not let user change anything from local database.

is there a sync failure notification or such thing
OR
is there a chained write method that syncs right after and gives result of both at the same time?

On this page https://realm.io/docs/realm-mobile-platform/get-started/

The "Ask on Stack Overflow" link searches Stack Overflow for the realm xamarin and tag. I would suggest changing this to just the realm tag.

The "Submit an Issue" links to submitting an issue in realm/realm-dotnet.

I'm having problems understanding how the sync mechanism is intended to work for different users. I'm confused on how should I create a realm database that would be in sync with two different users. The Realm mobile platform docs says this about the URL:
String serverURL = "realm://my.realm-server.com/~/default";

According to the docs, ~ is optional. If it is present, it will be replaced by users identifier meaning that every user would have its own realm database. When I do this with two different users, the database is not synced (which makes sense) because there are 2 different realms. So my question is, how should I setup my realm so that I have one realm database that is synced between 2 (or more) different users? The only case I managed to make it sync is when I would use one same user on two different devices.

I also tried constructing a realm url without ~ sign but then I get this:
REALM_JAVA: AuthenticateResponse. Error The path is invalid or current user has no access!

Can someone help me out understanding this please?

Hello Realm Community,

the Realm mobile platform is now in the beta state. I've seen on stackoverflow a few threads about the client side api to manage realm permissions which is not yet implemented or made public.

http://stackoverflow.com/a/39801679/4572536

I'd love to see a public roadmap on what features we can expect in the near future and what is on the current todo list for the first stable release.

I'm not sure if this is the right corner to post this or if the idea is totally out of scope for any future release of the mobile platform, but it's worth asking.

Some notes about my project:

• I have a large long term project without any start budget.
• I need to build an iOS Application which is a client to our service (main project).
• I'll have to build a backend to organize user and sync their data (private/public chats/posts etc.).
• I'd love to be able to focus on a single programming language (in my case Swift).

The Developer license of Realm MP solves a few things for me:

1. It's easy to use, because it's Realm. :)
2. It's a DB and it's working on Linux too.

The upcoming Pro license might fill a few more gaps:

1. Working with events (APNS - Push Notifications)?
2. Discovering user.
3. Managing user and their realms.

What not even the Enterprise license can do for me is the ability to focus on a single language.

Here comes Vapor into the game. It's an elegant and easy to use Swift package to build a backend.

Since the Developer license offers us the ability to store data on a linux machine, just like other databases do.

Wouldn't be great to have a Driver/Provider for Vapor?

That way we could finally use Realm as a DB for our own backends. This also might allow us to share some data structures between the client and the backend codebase.

As suggested here, I'm filing a bug because to point out that there is no continuous backup feature yet available.

That's the best way I can see to provide server redundancy / high availability.

Originally requested by @kdawgwilk in realm/realm-tasks#326:

I would love to see a login with Digits implemented for the example.

Is there anyone who knows how to get the Realm Mobile Platform work on ARM devices? Would like to get it working on a Raspberry Pi.

I have a single Realm file on the ROS server that I have multiple users pointing at. When calling authenticate() for the first time with a user, my Realm() comes back empty after I set the default realm sync configuration. This only happens on the first successful login for that user. Every time thereafter, it works works just fine, and I get false for .isEmpty. This happens with each successive "new" user on that device. I have a feeling this is due to the fact that there isn't a local version of the realmfile yet until the scope of this call exits (maybe?). If that is the case, is there a way to guarantee the realm is populated even on the first login within this completionHandler? I tried using .refresh() and also tried forcing a Realm().commitWrite. Neither helped. Later one crashed.

To reproduce, drop this in an appDelegate didFinishLaunching method call, and populate with valid creds, authURL, and realmURL.

SyncUser.authenticate(with: creds, server: authURL) { user, error in
        guard let user = user else {
            print(error!)
            return
        }

        Realm.Configuration.defaultConfiguration = Realm.Configuration(syncConfiguration: (user, realmURL))
        print("isEmpty: \(try! Realm().isEmpty)")
    }

Hi!

Here at our company we have an existing authentication provider for our customers. Is it possible to use this authentication provider for the Realm Mobile Plattform? Or is this feature planned for future releases?

We use Keycloak (http://www.keycloak.org/) so I should be possible using OAuth2 + OpenID like with the social authentication providers you already support.

Has 4.2-1 been pushed to packagecloud.io? I don't seem to have anything new available from 1.0.0-BETA-4.2-336.

Hi,
Do you have an official docker image for RMP?

Hi,
Do you have a public Slack community for Realm Mobile Plaform?

As a new feature/idea it would be great to have a client module for node.js so that you can manipulate data using a server side script too.

Can anyone tell me if selective synchronisation is on the roadmap?

i.e: Selectively synchronise rows that match a filter.

My focus is reducing on device database size and networking requirements.

Good evening.
#1 First off, love your work.

I'm using the newest version of realm-browser on osx el capitan. I can connect to my aws object server and see realms, but whenever I try to open one, it dies with a super helpful error message:

Now I post this here for the mobile platform, because i'm also having issues connecting to it from my ios project which leads me to think I've got a server side issue. Here's what the server side logs show:

And the xcode logs show:

I'm sure i'm likely doing something wrong, but no idea what. Here's a narrative overview of what I've done:

1. spun up ami realm-object-server-hvm-1474909717 (ami-80347097)
2. took the task demo, and slightly modified the authentication section to read:

func setupRealm() {

help me obi-won-realnobi you're my only hope!

If you run the start command whilst a server is already running it can kill all your (GUI) apps.

(Changelog says this is Object Server 1.0.0-beta-4.2)

• Double-clicked on the start-object-server.command
• later, after laptop sleep, didn't realise was still running first copy
• Double-clicked on the start-object-server.command
• in the Terminal window was prompted Another instance...already running
• typed yes to terminate the other instance
• all running Mac apps died leaving only the Terminal going

This is 100% repeatable.

(full log available from Terminal window but may want to just forward privately - unsure if things like the Admin token should be public here)

Hi! I've been getting this message from time to time when trying to connect to the object server. As far as I could detect it happens when the client cannot connect to the server for an extended period. I believe it happens mostly after the server has been offline for an extended period.

warn: [services] internal error: ExpiredRefreshToken: The refresh token is expired!

Is that a client issue or server issue?

here's the full message I get:

I just tried upgrading my RHEL instance running 2.3 to 3.0, but to my surprise I received 1.0.0_BETA_4.2-336.el7, along with a realm-object-server service that wouldn't start, even after reboot of the server. Just dropping a note here because I didn't see any release notes beyond 3.0 yet.

Hi! Is there a way to get notified when new beta releases are out? I just saw that 2.1 was out and I'm still running 1.0 😢

Maybe a symbolical release tag on this repository?

Thanks!!

Really loving the platform so far!

Just one question. Have I missed something, or is it not possible to have a "forgot password" feature right now?

Creating this issue because it's a dealbreaker for my client-server POS app: I see no way to establish user-level or group-level control over object modification.

EG: In a point-of-sale system, all users need to be able to view product descriptions and prices. But only a manager should be able to modify the products. When money is on the line, I cannot rely on all clients being trustworthy.

Working with Sync has made it abundantly clear that creating schemas across languages is a pretty hard problem, and we also mess it up frequently internally.

The following things will make this easier:

1. Agree on a format for a cross platform language for specifying schemas either as a new "language" or perhaps just use the JSON format that JS already uses?

2. Online tool for doing it on the fly. Will make one-off conversions really easy. It would also be cool if such a tool could validate the schema given a specification.

3. A command line tool for generating language specific classes. Useful for continuous development by multiple teams. Needs to be written in a cross-platform language, perhaps Java or Ruby? Could also be used as the backing code for 2).

Now that we can have Realms on our servers and can sync seamlessly to mobile apps, the next question is obvious: will there be a PHP or JavaScript SDK to access and sync a Realm in a web app?

Personally, I would love a JS SDK. Realm is already a 10, but this would push it to an 11. :)

Thanks for your time!
